KAEFER has received official confirmation from its financing partners regarding KAEFER’s ESG KPIs. KAEFER’s syndicated loan, signed on 16 March 2023, has now been classified as a ‘Sustainability Linked Loan’, which represents a significant step forward in the company’s commitment to environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles. In line with KAEFER’s sustainability commitments, an ESG component has been embedded for the first time. This component links the margin of the new facility to KAEFER’s carbon emission reduction and health and safety performance. KAEFER is delighted to have successfully achieved this important milestone.
Recognising the importance of addressing the various aspects of environmental, social and governance (ESG), KAEFER as a company has developed an approach to ensure a holistic and effective strategy. It includes multiple objectives and defines a clear vision that outlines our ambitious goals, establishes a system that complies with regulatory requirements such as the EU Taxonomy, CSRD and Supply Chain Acts, and develops relevant Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to monitor and measure our progress. To guide its sustainability initiatives, KAEFER has developed a dedicated roadmap, fostered transparent communication channels, and implemented a robust ESG governance framework.
The achievement of this significant milestone reinforces KAEFER’s ongoing efforts to contribute to a more sustainable future.
